German Cockroach

Primarily indoor environments such as kitchens, bathrooms, and other areas where food and moisture are present.

Omnivorous scavenger that eats variety of foods, including crumbs, grease, soap, glues, and binding materials.

Nocturnal and highly reproductive; females carry egg cases (oothecae) until shortly before hatching. They prefer dark, warm, and humid crevices.

Significant public health risk as they can spread pathogens, contaminate food, and trigger asthma or allergic reactions; they provide no significant benefits in domestic settings.
